Holtby should be conn smythe 

[Dewey 3280]

I've been following since the playoffs started, I remember a guy saying at least he didnt have to buy anymore tickets for the rest of the playoffs after a Caps lost, forget what round it was.

Ovi is one of my favorites, tremendous talent, happy for him.

[LongestHorn 759]

Nice win, Caps.  Enjoyed that.  welcome to the offseason.

Washington DC's team wins with a Russian Captain. God has a sense of humor.

I love seeing the great players that struggle for years to win a championship finally break through. 

[Jive Turkey 12561]

I saw nipples on the glass.

Not gonna lie, I teared up a bit seeing ovi's pure, unadulterated joy when he was handed the cup. Good for him, and the Caps.

I love hockey so hard

I'm just glad to root for a Washington team that didn't tank once again.  Loved it when I lived in Dallas and the Stars won.  And this is sweet. Love Oshie too and great to see him win even though he's only been a recent Cap.

Exactly what i thought, words just don't describe the feeling.

[Hornstrader 179]

Yes what the Knights accomplished this year was unprecedented, but they must have a really empty feeling right now.

Indeed!

As someone who "gave up" on Ovechkin a couple of years ago, I could not be happier for him.  To see the joy on his face made me really, really happy for him.  He deserved this and I don't think I've ever been happier for any player.  He had to wait a long time and he put in the work to earn it.

[Jive Turkey 12561]

TJ Oshie just made me tear up.  He was asked about his dad, who's battling Alzheimer's.  TJ said his dad has a hard time remembering things, but he's in the arena and he's sure as hell gonna remember this.

Texas Stars and some other team are the only ones left playing in north America. *

Series tied 2-2.

Go Stars.

*I don't know if there are other leagues paying in north America right now and I don't care to look ut to.

[Longhorn_Fan68 33815]

And I know it's the Toronto Marlies. I'm drunk. And high. Hunk. I'm hunk.

Can't win it at home but might as well win the game you have left.

[Skipper 6084]

That was an awesome game last night.  Happy for the Caps/Ovi and have some DC friends that probably aren't making it to work today.  Knights were a good story but really didn't want them winning it all.   Fans need to go through years of disappointment to really appreciate winning it all.

[GabrielsHorn 2142]

Wish the series went a bit longer, but it was definitely a fair result. Knights were just so timid in the Finals, though I think that's mainly to the Caps being on a completely other level. That pass for the opening goal was so, so beautiful.
